Twisted wording. From another source you may or may not like, same person, different general message.Texas hospital CEO: COVID inpatient count 'misinterpreted,' level of alarm 'unwarranted'
In Texas, focal point of national anxiety about a coronavirus 'second wave,' the state counts every COVID-positive hospital patient as a hospitalization for COVID itself, which may be exaggerating numbers.t.co
In GA this is reportedly separately.

Death rates lag case counts, it’s way too early to say thatThe wuhan Corono Virus is losing its punch. Good news and as time rolls on, it will be rolling out of our way,lives. Good riddance!

Tomorrow will be day 7 since I tested positive on my swab. That is supposed to be the worst day according to survivors. I just want to put It on the record that I’ve had common colds that have packed more punch than this.
I am so ready to be done with this nonsense
For those using deaths as an argument for it getting better, it’s clearly just killing people at a slower rate, which is largely due to our medical interventions.
That should be extremely obvious... as cases are exploding, and hospitalizations are increasing, deaths are decreasing.
Why???
Our knowledge on how to treat a Covid-19 patient has gone from ZERO to in depth protocols at every hospital in the nation.
See here for a nice summary of a protocol from a teaching hospital on how they treat Covid 19 patients: https://www.evms.edu/media/evms_pub...cine/EVMS_Critical_Care_COVID-19_Protocol.pdf
It’s not because the virus is slowing down, it’s not because the virus has mutated to a weaker virus, it’s because our doctors are doing their job and kicking ass.
Bingo! Everyone on the right loves to cherry-pick death figures and pretend like it's getting better and this is all going away very soon! Couldn't be further from the truth.
Agreed. We need many more people to die.
That’s obviously not what he’s saying, you know that.
